Thursday we will be working on identifying what is required by the free response prompts and honing our skills in addressing them. This does NOT mean we will be doing a timed write, though it doesn’t mean we won’t either.

All right, don’t hate me. You’re not done with your papers quite yet. Now that they are “done”, you need to do a rhetorical analysis of your own work. Examine the diction and syntax (word choice, sentence variety, why those choices were made). Scrutinize the development or your ethos. Assess your use of logos and pathos and how they aid (or perhaps handicap) your argument.
Then you need to make a descriptive outline of your paper that you will turn in with your paper (don’t do the “reader” section). If, after you are done, you find you’d like to revise your paper further (you probably will), it is due Friday, January 11th.
